Library compatibility between GNU and WindRiver 4.2.0.0

Library compatibility between GNU and WindRiver 4.2.0.0

Building a POSIX multi-thread C code application targeting Atom E6xx, running a pre-built (board-vendor supplied kernel) WindRiver Linux 4.2.0.0. (to be completely clear , we are not building the kernel, only the application)

So it didn't find the .gdbinit. It didn't load libtread-db, even tho auto-load was set to true and the default path ($sdir) was set, and also the auto-load safe-path returned /lib/libthread_db-1.0.so which I think is what we want(?).

I spent the last couple of hours digging around gdb forums but can't seem to figure this out. Will keep banging on it. Hoping someone here has some ideas?
